Ambassador Nick Burns, a former US Under Secretary of State and US Ambassador to NATO and now Professor of the Practice of Diplomacy and International Politics at Harvard‘s John F. Kennedy School of Government, is coming to the UK shortly, and I am looking forward to catching up with him. Nick is an astute observer of global affairs, and an American who has a profound understanding of how the rest of the world thinks and operates, and the changing world order which the US must manage and navigate. I enjoyed watching this discussion between Nick and the FT’s Editor Lionel Barber, discussing Europe and the US response to the unravelling crisis.
